                don't worry.  the suggestion of substance is a facade.

                Just another month and a half and I get that hug for real....
  The Veteran's Parade always tears me up.

                I have heard about that.  NY is a bit too much for me to take...the crowds make me insane but it would be cool to see that.

                You gotta quit being so prophetic we might actually think there is some substance underneath your facade.

                we have an annual veterans day parade here, and I always cry. The air is so emotion-charged and the slapping adds to it, I just can't help it. Glad you got a surrogate hug--the real thing will be coming soon.

                    I like the spring parade
                
                in NYc, with all the ladies wearing their spring hats. I think it is called the Spring Hat Parade. Anyhow it is a hoot and has nothing to do with war. Love, Vib

                Sometimes, we need a hug more than anything else...  I'm glad you got one!

                It doesn't take much these days...that one action made a day that was really not going well, soooooooooo much better.

                BEHIND the camera!!!!  The stress and lack of sleep show up way too often in pictures this year, so I prefer to TAKE the pictures LOL!
